Publisher's summary

Ruethwyn hadn't expected to risk death while attending the most renowned mage academy in the kingdom, but after surviving a dragon's attack, she hasn't been willing to back down. Though she'd nearly died due to her efforts, Ruethwyn managed to protect the lives of her friends and earn the grudging respect of some of her opponents.

With most danger out of the way, Ruethwyn finds herself free to focus on finishing out the school year, and for the task beyond that. Having learned of a faint possibility to remove the curse preventing her missing arm and eye from being regenerated, Ruethwyn looks to the frozen, deadly fey lands of the Frostglades to the north. There, she hopes to find not only the way to restore her body, but also to find allies who might aid her in recovering the other survivors of Mellesyn from Resvarygrath's draconic grasp.

Fortunately for her, Ruethwyn never believed that her quest would be easy. Her only fear is that the enigmatic dark elf who saved her life will find Ruethwyn unworthy and choose to end her journey before it truly begins.

The epic struggle continues.

The second book continues with the epic struggles of the mc. Since I really liked the first book this is not a complaint. I like the world and the people in it. The narration is also a plus. Looking forward to the narration of the next book.

A Great Sequel

The narrator is still the same one from the first book, much to my shag-grin, but I think I've grown used to her. Past that, I was happy to see that the story made it to the frost glades. As usual for this author, the dialogue is a bit awkward, but the overall storyline makes up for it. If you liked the first book, then this one is a no-brainer and you will probably find it to be even better. I'm off to download the third book now. Cheers!

Disappointing

I am very disappointed with how the main characters disabilities were handled. The author could have been so much more creative with integrating them into Rue's magic instead of just... erasing them at the end. The writing was also consistently mediocre and at times read almost like a list of D&D spells, and the plot as a whole read like a pre-baked D&D campaign you could buy online. Being inspired by D&D is fine, but do your own world building and be more creative. This book sucked.
